Led lights no heated washers

On a drive back from Detroit today it's started snowing. 20mins later I had a pop up on the dash about cleaning the headlight sensors. This is not the full led (loaner 2017 c300) I noticed the lighters were significantly darker on the road. Finished driving home 2 hrs like this. Once in the garage I saw that the Lights were pretty caked over with snow/ice. How do they not have power washers anymore. I can't imagine pulling over to clean the lights all the time driving in snow slush. Anybody else drive in the snow yet?

Drove today from Manistee, Michigan back to Chicago and it snowed the entire way. The "Radar Sensor Dirty, See Operator's Manual" came on twice. Had to pull over and clean the front bumper and grill twice to get the radar's functional again.

This caused the "Radar Sensors Dirty" message. I've never seen a warning about the headlights though.

Fortunately we normally don't have THAT mess to contend with here. This past summer I did have the "radar sensors dirty" message while driving through an intense thunder storm. About 5 min later we pulled off to the side of the road, along with most everyone else, because of the cross winds and lack of visibility. I'm convinced there was a tornado imbedded in that mess! *shudders*


Sensors worked normally after we popped out on the backside of the storm.
